From its earliest days, cinema has depended on science. Not only has the technical side of the industry used STEM-based knowledge to advance the field but, in many cases, the creative forces behind the films have used themes from science to drive the arc of their stories.

He stops by Stem Spots to discuss the series and the aims and general goals of the Moxie.
